Marimn Health Marimn Health provides primary medical, wellness, and preventative care for the whole family. Community. Health. Care.

Three little words that describe who we are and what we do. In fact, these three words go all the way back to the beginning and explain exactly why the Coeur d’Alene Tribe first opened a medical clinic in the community more than two decades ago. You see, in the 1970s and 1980s, healthcare on the reservation was nothing to write home about. Tribal members could receive healthcare services at a dilapidated Indian Health Services clinic. Tribal members have memories of seeing snow blow under the poorly insulated doors at the small clinic and tell stories of waiting in line on the days the doctor came to town. If you needed anything more than basic care back then, the nearest hospitals were more than 30 minutes away on roads that were snowy and treacherous in the wintertime. By the late 1980s, tribal council had seen enough and decided to open their own healthcare clinic. Healthcare for non-Indians who lived on the rural reservation was equally as poor as the care available to tribal members, so tribal leaders decided to open the clinic and provide healthcare for everyone who needed it. In 1990, the Coeur d’Alene Tribe opened the Benewah Medical Center. To this day, the clinic is open to anyone and everyone who needs it. The clinic, now known as Marimn Health, is a federally qualified community health center, which means that eligible patients can receive services on a sliding fee scale and no one is turned away. The Coeur d’Alene Tribe has always believed in caring for the entire community and here at Marimn Health, we continue that tradition by caring for the health of everyone who lives, works, and plays in our community.

Encouraging words from Yvette Matt, a breast cancer survivor. 🎀

“You can get breast cancer at any age. I was 31, and never did I expect to have breast cancer. At that point, mammograms weren’t encouraged until you were 50. I’m glad to see that recommendations have changed and that women are encouraged to begin screening earlier. Don’t ever think you’re too young to know your body and talk with your healthcare provider.

Cancer is not a death sentence. The medicine and treatments available today are so amazing. They don’t just have one treatment that fits everyone. I went through four or five different treatments before we found one that worked for me. I did treatments for 12 years, and I was told I would have to do treatments for the rest of my life.

I believe your mental wellness and your belief in yourself can outweigh what the doctors say. If you believe you’re strong enough to beat it, believe in yourself. Keep fighting, keep believing, and never give up hope.”

We're back with another incredible breast cancer survivor. Marquette Hendrickx shares different parts of her journey and the lessons she learned along the way. From your first screening to your last treatment, Marquette's story offers something for everyone.

We asked Marquette what she wished she had known about breast cancer, screenings, or early detection before her own experience.

Marquette shared 💗 “Screening for breast cancer can start before age 40 depending on a woman’s individual risk. Starting at age 30 (or even earlier), anyone can take an online breast cancer risk assessment, like the Tyrer-Cuzick Risk Assessment Calculator. Discuss the results with your provider to determine if screening mammograms should start earlier. Then, it’s so important to stick to the recommended screening schedule!

I didn’t know that breast cancer treatment is essentially life-long. After the surgeries, chemo and/or radiation, there is almost always daily medication that comes after to prevent the cancer from returning. I wasn’t prepared for how I was going to feel. The fatigue, body aches, and numerous other side effects can take a huge toll on overall quality of life. But for me, I feel like it’s a small price to pay in order to stay healthy and have many more years with my family, my children and granddaughter!

For anyone who does find out they have breast cancer, I know it can be devastating and overwhelming! When I was diagnosed, I knew very little about breast cancer. My oncologist said that’s pretty normal. Most people don’t sit around studying cancer to prepare for having it one day! So, it’s ok to feel like you don’t know everything—that’s what your care team is for! Find a team you trust and that listens to you and your concerns. There were times I had to advocate for myself in order to get the care I felt I deserved!

I know it’s scary and so easy to procrastinate when it comes to our health, but early detection is really the key to beating cancer! It can also be the difference between more or less invasive surgeries and treatments. I’ve had multiple women tell me they got their mammogram they had been putting off after they heard I was diagnosed and I’m so thankful for that!”

Thank you, Marquette, for sharing your experience and reminding us of the importance of knowing your risk and staying up to date with recommended screenings. If you have questions about your breast health or when you should begin screening, reach out to your healthcare provider and schedule an appointment today: 208-686-1931.
